The ace all-rounder is on fire

Chapter 474 Exploring Nanli Village
The car parked on the high slope of the hill, looking down from a high position, there are dozens of old houses scattered scattered in the valley, even in such sunny weather, it still looks gloomy.

A large area of ​​creepers climbed all over the roof and courtyard walls, and overgrown weeds spread throughout the entire village. The mountains and fields are quiet and green, showing another kind of unmanned vitality in the barrenness and decay.

This is Nanli Village, Zhou Jie's hometown. The meandering river flows outside the village, enclosing the mountains into the shape of a pear.

In terms of flowing water and mountain layout, Nanli Village is backed by mountains and facing water, where wind and energy are gathered, so it should be a place with good geomantic omen.

The big pattern of Feng Shui is good, but something goes wrong with the small pattern.It's like two neighborhoods in the same city. This neighborhood has good Fengshui, but the adjacent neighborhood has poor Fengshui.

As far as the terrain around the village is concerned, the west is high and the east is low, and the terrain at Lin Shen's parking lot is higher than the east. In terms of Feng Shui, this is called a white tiger poking its claws and a blue dragon hiding its head, which is unlucky.

The purple air of the rising sun coming from the east was blocked by the high ground at the west end of the village and rebounded. The whole village was in the position where the feng shui turbulence was the most intense. If it could be moved eastward for more than ten miles, it could be resolved.

Lin Shen knew these things at a glance, but they were not the focus of her attention.

After getting a general understanding of the hydrology and landforms, Lin Shen started the car again and drove down the hillside.

At the entrance of the village, Lin Shen saw two tall walnut trees, which were more than [-] meters high, full of green shade and full of vitality.

A small road in the village covered by weeds, and the dilapidated house on the opposite side is the old house of Yan Zihan's mother Zeng Qiuni.

Lin Shen stopped the car and turned off the engine, put on his gloves, jumped out of the car, and took out the engineering shovel from the back of the car.

The wooden courtyard gate has long been dilapidated, and the red brick gate is covered with creeper vines.

Lin Shen cut off the ivy with an engineering shovel, and kicked open the crumbling broken wooden door.

In the yard, two pheasants in the weeds were frightened and flapped their wings and flew away.

Lin Shen waved his shovel to open the way, a frightened long insect in the grass spat out its snake core and stared at Lin Shen for a while, maybe Lin Shen's aura was too strong, the snake turned its head and slipped into the grass and disappeared.

The yard is quite large. The roofs of the two old red brick houses in front of them have collapsed, leaving only the outer walls surrounded by creepers.

Lin Shen came out of the house through the grass, and took a look inside the house through the open window. The house was in a mess, the walls were mottled, and there were mice running around on the cabinet.

Lin Shen didn't enter the house, but turned around and came to the courtyard to look for the well that the old lady saved her life back then.

Near the east side of the yard, the overgrown weeds were the most luxuriant. Lin Shen went there directly, and found a well among the weeds.

The well was covered with moss along the inner side of the brick wall, and there was still clear well water more than two meters deep from the well head. A few small fish shuttled across the water surface. When Lin Shen probed, the fish quickly swam to the bottom of the well.

Lin Shen used a shovel to remove the moss on the wall of the well, and there were dozens of criss-cross marks on the wall of the well, as if some sharp object had scratched it forcibly.

Lin Shen took some photos of the scene with his mobile phone, and then he got out of the yard and drove through the village.

On the way, he searched a few families, and found that the situation was similar. Lin Shen went all the way east to the Dahuaishu family at the head of the village.

The old tree with lush branches and leaves is probably hundreds of years old. Under the tree lies a round stone mill buried in weeds.

It was past noon, Lin Shen went back to the car to eat something, closed his eyes and rested for a while.

After waking up, Lin Shen got up his spirits, jumped out of the car and walked up the steps with an engineering shovel in hand. The courtyard door was locked.

Lin Shen went down with a shovel, and the lock fell in response, and Lin Shen broke into the door.

The yard was empty, with some tattered farming tools piled up against the wall, as well as some rusty and unusual metal tools.

Lin Shen knew that it was the guy used to burn the kiln, so Lin Shen took a photo and entered the room.

The three tile-roofed houses have mottled walls but the roofs are still there. They are not like the previous few houses, only the ruins of the walls are left, and you can see the blue sky and white clouds above your head when you look up.

Lin Shen discovered a problem. In ordinary houses, the rooms on the east and west sides are usually opened to the north and south for ventilation. However, the east and west wing rooms of the Zhou family have an extra window, which is opened on the gable walls on both sides.

The advantage of doing this is that the lighting and ventilation in the room is particularly good. Lin Shen checked the window sills on both sides. Judging from the mottledness of the wall bricks and window frames, it seems that they were excavated and built later.

Why add two windows?
Three sides are ventilated, not to mention the west sun, the privacy of the room will be affected, and ordinary people will not do this.

There are two wooden boxes piled up in a corner of the west wing. When you open them, you can see that there are dozens of mice living in them, and a family meeting is being held.

When the box saw the light, the rats ran wildly like a frying pan.

Some of them wanted to jump up and bite Lin Shen, but in a rage, Lin Shen smashed into the box with the engineer shovel in his hand, and drove the mice away.

The shovel hits the bottom of the box with a hollow thud, is it empty?

Lin Shen's heart skipped a beat.

She moved the box aside, and an underground passage covered with square planks suddenly appeared in the corner of the old red brick paved wall.

This was a key discovery, and Lin Shen was so excited that he quickly lifted up the square planks covering the tunnel entrance with his engineering shovel.

A rotten and musty smell rushed over.

Lin Shen took out the flashlight from the pocket of his vest and shone it down into the dark room, revealing a flight of stairs.

Lin Shen walked down the stairs, with the electric light in front, and gradually descended into the dark room.

The ground is covered with thick dust, and there are old cobwebs hanging on the beams and pillars around, and the dark dust floats where the flashlight shines.

Old incandescent light bulbs hang from the ceiling, and the wooden racks at the end of the darkroom are filled with all kinds of porcelain blanks, some are glazed, and some are just bare blanks.

Many porcelain blanks were incomplete. Lin Shen glanced over the residual porcelain on the shelf one by one. The shape of many porcelains looked so familiar, and the crucial clue was right in front of him. Lin Shen felt another wave in his heart.

On the shelf, she also found a piece of metal wire that was more than ten centimeters long and thinner than a hair. When she touched it lightly with her fingers, it felt slightly rough.

It is an alloy with strong toughness that makes the gold wire saw, which is used by some highly skilled porcelain masters to cut porcelain.

Lin Shen put the broken gold wire saws into sealed bags and took pictures one by one on the spot to collect evidence.

After the zombie attack case, Nanli Village became a ghost village where no one visited. The tomb robbers openly regarded the Zhou family as a workshop for making counterfeit porcelain, working day and night without anyone disturbing them.

The reason why two windows are added to the east and west wing rooms is to increase the lighting in the room, so that it is convenient for counterfeiters to observe the color difference of the contrasting glaze.

Lin Shen quickly deduced and restored the details of the case 30 years ago in his mind, and scenes appeared in his mind...
